  • What Are the Acute Treatments for Migraine and How Are They Used?
    2. Acute Treatment CQ II-2-1 What are the acute treatments for migraine and how are they used? Recommendation The mainstay of acute treatment for migraine is pharmacotherapy. The drugs used include (1) acetaminophen, (2) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), (3) ergotamines, (4) triptans and (5) antiemetics. Stratified treatment according to the severity of migraine is recommended: use NSAIDs such as aspirin and naproxen for mild to moderate headache, and use triptans for moderate to severe headache, or even mild to moderate headache when NSAIDs were ineffective in the past. It is necessary to give guidance and cautions to patients having acute attacks, and explain the methods of using medications (timing, dose, frequency of use) and medication use during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Grade A Background and Objective The objective of acute treatment is to resolve the migraine attack completely and rapidly and restore the patient’s normal functions. An ideal treatment should have the following characteristics: (1) resolves pain and associated symptoms rapidly; (2) is consistently effective; (3) no recurrence; (4) no need for additional use of medication; (5) no adverse effects; (6) can be administered by the patients themselves; and (7) low cost. Literature was searched to identify acute treatments that satisfy the above conditions. Comments and Evidence The acute treatment drugs for migraine generally include (1) acetaminophens, (2) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), (3) ergotamines, (4) triptans, and (5) antiemetics. For severe migraines including status migrainosus and migraine attacks refractory to treatment, (6) anesthetics, and (7) corticosteroids (dexamethasone) are used (Tables 1 and 2).1)-9) There are two approaches to the selection and sequencing of these medications: “step care” and “stratified care”.

Batch specific analytical results are provided on each certificate of analysis. Laboratory Procedures Salsalate is supplied as a crystalline solid. A stock solution may be made by dissolving the salsalate in the solvent of choice, which should be purged with an inert gas. Salsalate is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, DMSO, and dimethyl formamide (DMF). The solubility of salsalate in these solvents is approximately 3, 5, and 14 mg/ml, respectively. Salsalate is sparingly soluble in aqueous buffers. For maximum solubility in aqueous buffers, salsalate should first be dissolved in DMF and then diluted with the aqueous buffer of choice. Salsalate has a solubility of approximately 0.5 mg/ml in a 1:1 solution of DMF:PBS (pH 7.2) using this method. We do not recommend storing the aqueous solution for more than one day. Description Salsalate is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and prodrug form of salicylic acid.1 It is converted to salicylic acid by hydrolysis. It inhibits prostaglandin E2 (PGE2; Item No. 14010) production in isolated 2 human whole blood stimulated with LPS (IC50 = 39.9 µM). Salsalate (1,000 mg/kg) inhibits weight gain and decreases fasting plasma glucose and insulin levels, as well as decreases plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels in a mouse model of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) induced by a high-fat high-cholesterol diet.3 Formulations containing salsalate have been used in the treatment of pain associated with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.

  • Native State Stabilization by Nsaids Inhibits Transthyretin Amyloidogenesis from the Most Common Familial Disease Variants
    Laboratory Investigation (2004) 84, 545–552 & 2004 USCAP, Inc All rights reserved 0023-6837/04 $25.00 www.laboratoryinvestigation.org Native state stabilization by NSAIDs inhibits transthyretin amyloidogenesis from the most common familial disease variants Sean R Miller, Yoshiki Sekijima and Jeffery W Kelly Department of Chemistry and The Skaggs Institute of Chemical Biology, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA 92037, USA Transthyretin (TTR) tetramer dissociation and misfolding affords a monomeric amyloidogenic intermediate that misassembles into aggregates including amyloid fibrils. Amyloidogenesis of wild-type (WT) TTR causes senile systemic amyloidosis (SSA), whereas fibril formation from one of the more than 80 TTR variants leads to familial amyloidosis, typically with earlier onset than SSA. Several nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) stabilize the native tetramer, strongly inhibiting TTR amyloid fibril formation in vitro. Structure-based designed NSAID analogs are even more potent amyloid inhibitors. The effectiveness of several NSAIDs, including diclofenac, diflunisal, and flufenamic acid, as well as the diclofenac analog, 2–[(3,5-dichlorophenyl) amino] benzoic acid (inhibitor 1), has been demonstrated against WT TTR amyloidogenesis. Herein, the efficacy of these compounds at preventing acid-induced fibril formation and urea-induced tetramer dissociation of the most common disease-associated TTR variants (V30M, V122I, T60A, L58H, and I84S) was evaluated. Homotetramers of these variants were employed for the studies within, realizing that the tetramers in compound heterozygote patients are normally composed of a mixture of WT and variant subunits. The most common familial TTR variants were stabilized substantially by flufenamic acid and inhibitor 1, and to a lesser extent by diflunisal, against acid-mediated fibril formation and chaotrope denaturation, suggesting that this chemotherapeutic option is viable for patients with familial transthyretin amyloidosis.

  • Efficacy and Safety of Celecoxib
    ORIGINAL PAPER Nagoya J. Med. Sci. 77. 81 ~ 93, 2015 EFFICACY AND SAFETY OF CELECOXIB COMPARED WITH PLACEBO AND ETODOLAC FOR ACUTE POSTOPERATIVE PAIN: A MULTICENTER, DOUBLE-BLIND, RANDOMIZED, PARALLEL-GROUP, CONTROLLED TRIAL NAOKI ISHIGURO1, MD, PhD; AKIO HANAOKA2, MS; TOSHIYUKI OKADA2, MS; and MASANORI ITO3, PhD 1Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Nagoya University Graduate School of Medicine, Nagoya, Japan 2Clinical Development 1, Astellas Pharma Inc., Tokyo, Japan 3Global Data Science, Astellas Pharma Global Development Inc., Northbrook, IL, US ABSTRACT Celecoxib is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor) that is widely used. The efficacy and safety of celecoxib for treatment of acute postoperative pain were evaluated in Japanese patients. The objective was to assess whether celecoxib showed superiority over placebo treatment and non-inferiority versus etodolac (another selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor) that has been widely used for the management of acute pain. A multicenter, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, controlled study was performed, in which 616 patients with postoperative pain received celecoxib, etodolac, or placebo. Their impressions of study drug efficacy (overall assessment) and pain intensity were evaluated. Based on each patient’s overall assessment of pain, the efficacy rate was 63.7% in the placebo group, 76.2% in the celecoxib group, and 68.0% in the etodolac group, with these results demonstrating superiority of celecoxib to placebo and noninferiority versus etodolac. The efficacy rate was significantly higher in the celecoxib group than in the etodolac group. There were no adverse events specific to celecoxib, and the safety of celecoxib was similar to that of placebo. Celecoxib was superior to etodolac for controlling acute postoperative pain.
